(Richmond Hill, ON) Dec. 20, 2013, – Clearly Canadian, in keeping with the ever evolving digital age, is opening up its coming online pre-sales campaign to the global bitcoin community. “Online virtual currencies are clearly here to stay – no pun intended”, according to Mitch Callahan, Clearly Canadian’s Bitcoin Campaign Manager. “Just as Clearly Canadian pioneered the new age beverage industry in the ‘80s and ‘90s…bitcoin, in a much more profound way, is poised to change how we all transact business on a global scale. Clearly Canadian finds that truly exciting and we are proud to be a new emerging member of the bitcoin community.”

Clearly Canadian is commencing an online fan-sourced pre-sales campaign worldwide Monday, December 23rd, two days before Christmas, to re-ignite large-scale production and supply current demand. At its last peak Clearly Canadian was producing in excess of 5 million cases annually. “We’d like to pre-sell at least 25,000 cases of Clearly Canadian online to the global bitcoin community, personally I hope we double, triple or even quadruple that goal, but let’s see what happens. Pricing will be denoted in dollars but transacted in bitcoins through BitPay, the leading bitcoin merchant processing platform. We intend to be a long-lerm merchant in bitcoin transacted consumer goods,” stated Mr. Callahan.

“Having a globally recognized consumer brand such as Clearly Canadian join the bitcoin community is a powerful statement about the increasing popularity and growing base of bitcoin merchants and users. Many are watching the bitcoin market closely and we hope that this is the first of many established brands that see the benefits of adding bitcoins to their payment options. We are happy to have Clearly Canadian on board and wish the very best of success in its campaign,” stated Tony Gallipi, CEO of BitPay.
